Examples:
Why dost thou smile so at me?” inquired Hester, troubled at the expression of his eyes. “Art thou like the Black Man that haunts the forest round about us? Hast thou enticed me into a bond that will prove the ruin of my soul?” Pg 53. Sardayah Sambo
"In a word, old Roger Chillingworth was a striking example of man's faculty of transforming himself into a devil..." pg 116. MICHELLE NKUMSAH
"now there was something ugly and evil
in his face, which they had not previously no"... chapter 9
"Calm, gentle, passionless, as he appeared, there was yet, we fear, a quiet depth of malice, hitherto latent, but active now, in this unfortunate old man, which led him to imagine a more intimate revenge than any mortal had ever wreaked upon an enemy" (Hawthorne 95-96). (Lindsey Heitzmann)
"This unhappy person had effected such a transformation by devoting himself to the constant analysis of a heart full of torture.. (pg 116) Barbara Muhumuza
"Had a man seen old Roger Chillingworth, at that moment of his ecstasy, he would have had no need to ask how Satan comports himself, when a precious human soul is lost to heaven, and won into his kingdom.

"Certainly, if the meteor kindled up the sky, and disclosed the earth, with an awfulness that admonished Hester Prynne and the clergyman of the day of judgment, then might Roger Chillingworth have passed with them for the arch-fiend, standing there, with a smile and scowl, to claim his own. So vivid was the expression, or so intense the minister's perception of it, that it seemed still to remain painted on the darkness, after the meteor had vanished, with an effect as if the street and all things else were at once annihilated."
